Hi,
I am trying to use the CompUnit module. I thought I had it working, but
then found that units were not being replaced.
I reduced the code to:
<pre>
use v6.c;
use nqp;
'cache'.IO.unlink if 'cache'.IO ~~ e;
my $precomp-store =
CompUnit::PrecompilationStore::File.new(prefix=>'cache'.IO);
my $precomp = CompUnit::PrecompilationRepository::Default.new(store=>
$precomp-store );
my $key = nqp::sha1('test.pod6');
'test.pod6'.IO.spurt(q:to/--END--/);
=begin pod
=TITLE More and more
Some text
=end pod
--END--
$precomp.precompile('test.pod6'.IO, $key, :force);
my $handle = $precomp.load( $key )[0];
my $resurrected = nqp::atkey($handle.unit,'$=pod')[0];
say $resurrected.contents[1].contents[0];
'test.pod6'.IO.spurt(q:to/--END--/);
=begin pod
=TITLE More and more
Some more text added
=end pod
--END--
# $precomp-store.unlock;
# fails with:
# Attempt to unlock mutex by thread not holding it
# in block <unit> at comp-test.p6 line 30
$precomp.precompile('test.pod6'.IO, $key, :force);
my $new-handle = $precomp.load($key)[0];
my $new-resurrected = nqp::atkey($handle.unit,'$=pod')[0];
say $new-resurrected.contents[1].contents[0];
</pre>
The output is always:
Some text
Some text
In other words the new version of test.pod6 is not being added to the
CompUnit object.
I looked at the code for 'Precompilation::Repository.pm6' and at line
231, if :force is True, then the new code should be precompiled.
However, I have noticed the directory for the Repository has a lock file.
Is that why I can't update the Repository?
If not, what am I doing wrong here?
How can I change what's in the CompUnit?
How can I delete what's in the CompUnit?
Regards
